Scheduled for launch in March, the athletic-infused shoe will be available in both spiked and spikeless versions in a variety of colour options for fashionable modern golfer. M:PROJECT is already being worn in competition by several FJ brand ambassadors, including Hunter Mahan.

Using proprietary M:SPEC leather by Pittards of England for a thin-yet-strong specification, this precision engineered shoe has been designed to deliver a full range of motion along with an superbly supple and comfortable feel. FootJoy are able to get the golfer as close to the ground as possible whilst maintaining stability, using a host of new technologies. These include an MP:627 last that allows for a generous forefoot shape so toes can easily spread and maintain grip, a ProTekt toe guard which provides additional abrasion resistance in key wear areas and an industry-first Laser Thin Duramax rubber compound that acts as a low-profile and a highly flexible conduit from ground to feet.
